    Ingredients

    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
    • 1 stick of unsalted butter, cold, cut into pieces (8 tablespoons)
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350′ and line baking sheets with parchment paper (about 3 sheets). Beat sugars and butter together until creamy and smooth, then add in the egg, vanilla and baking powder. Whisk/sift together the dry ingredients: flour, salt, baking soda. Slowly mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Finally, stir in your add ins and scoop cookie dough into 1 1/2 – 2 tablespoon balls and place on lined cookie sheet. Bake for about 10-12 minutes.
    2. Note: If making a two in one batch or more, before adding the additional ingredients, separate the dough into two halves (or thirds) and place one (or two) in a medium sized mixing bowl. Stir in the respective add ins.
    3. Add ins for a full batch, if separating dough into two parts halve ingredients, decrease even more if making more than two types:
    4. Chocolate chip cookies with sea salt – need 1 1/2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips and a bit of flaky sea salt (sprinkle salt on top of cookie dough balls right before they go into the oven)
    5. Kitchen sink cookies with cereal and walnuts – need 1 cup of a favorite cereal, or oats, and 1 cup of a nut like chopped walnuts or pecans
    6. Toasted oats with raisins - 2 cups of toasted oats and 1 cup of raisins
